We start this week with NVDA happenings:

1A) NVDA 2015.3RC1 has just been released. This is a release candidate, which means that unless any critical issues are found, this will be identical to the final 2015.3 release. Highlights of this release include initial support for Windows 10; the ability to disable single letter navigation in browse mode (useful for some web apps); improvements in Internet Explorer; and fixes for garbled text when typing in certain applications with Braille enabled:http://community.nvda-project.org/blog/NVDA2015.3rc1Released

1B) If you want to hear how this version of NVDA works with Windows 10, here is an audio tutorial:http://nvda-kr.org/en

1C) And finally, the most recent entries in Joseph Lee’s blog consist of the first installments in a series for programmers and developers entitled “NVDA Add-on Internals:”http://joslee22590.blogspot.com/
